Installing and Removing PMC/XMC Modules
The procedure for installing and XMC/PMC module into the VPX4810 series carrier varies depending on the
carrier type.
Please note that if you purchase the VPX4810 and one of Acromag’s PMC or XMC modules separately you may
require one of the following additional hardware kits to complete mounting.
AXM-KIT
: This kit contains a blank front panel and 4 screws. It is required for proper installation of any
Acromag Virtex 4, Virtex 5, or Spartan 6 board
without
an AXM module attached
in an air cooled carrier.
PMC-KIT-CC:
This kit contains the necessary screws to attach an Acromag PMC/XMC module to the
VPX4810CC or the VPX4810REDI.
VPX4810 Air-Cooled
Step 1: Take your XMC/PMC module and verify that it has a front panel attached and properly screwed into the
XMC/PMC module. If not then install a blank front panel that is available in the AXM- KIT. Set the jumpers on
the VPX 4810 now.
